I don't think this one is going to be the one that gets him, but I think it's the first domino, and one of the many others will.

and new in
Trump is being charged with 34 counts of falsification of business records. (CNN)

Yep, well, Obama said, "I was actually black before the election."

And The Orange One (who does so like to copy 44) can say, "I was actually a crook before the election."

If Trump doesn't stop shooting his mouth off of Troth Sential, he might get slapped with a gag order on Tuesday

DuncinToffee · 03/04/2023 09:56

He is so scared

Now this has come out
https://twitter.com/TristanSnell/status/1642654778965499908?t=EWJRu_pHCOIeoTwLK2Xx1w&s=19

BREAKING: Trump himself hid documents at Mar-a-Lago, and DOJ has proof, including witness testimony, texts, and video footage.

AFTER getting the grand jury subpoena, Trump went through docs personally — and then they were moved elsewhere at Mar-a-Lago (including his office).

I'm wondering with everything being set up for Tuesday, if Trump might decide to turn up early on Monday. If he's staying at Trump Tower already (no idea) he could do so very easily and his Secret Service detail would have to comply and couldnt give the Court much warning.
It would give him control, enable him to whine about the "disorganisation" of Braggs office, yet hold the moral high ground by saying he wanted to reduce the likelihood of Pro Trump supporters getting overexcited, so he arrived early.

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 03/04/2023 18:14

Well here's a thing.

Trump has got himself yet another new different lawyer, Todd Blanche, who was until recently a partner at law firm Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, as part of his defense team against the indictment filed last week in New York.

The former assistant U.S. attorney in the Manhattan U.S. attorney’s office previously represented Trump ally Paul Manafort and onetime Rudy Giuliani associate Igor Fruman.

They both went to jail. I do hope it's an omen.

DuncinToffee · 03/04/2023 18:26

He is en route according to the news

BruceAndNosh · 03/04/2023 20:26

Surely the most innocent man in the world doesn't need a new lawyer every week.
But it sounds like he's hired a gamekeeper turned poacher

My Mother Jones and WP newsletters are telling me that elections for the Wisconsin Supreme Court are a critical turning point, and so now is the BBC

The most important race you’ve never heard of is happening in Wisconsin.

TV cameras denied access to court. Still photography only from pool photographers

You KNOW that Trump's version of proceedings will differ from the media who are allowed in.

I understood that this only applys to live broadcast not to it being filmed at all.

tbh I would want it to be filmed as a record. and released afterwards.

DuncinToffee · 04/04/2023 15:07

He will not stay quiet

Hearing that Trump is expected to speak to the cameras that will be setup in the hallway outside the courtroom where his arraignment is happening, per people familiar, after Trump lawyer Chris Kise teased it on CNN.

BruceAndNosh · 04/04/2023 16:05

Trump "has the right to remain silent" but lacks the ability to do so.
I can see Contempt of Court being added to the charge sheet pretty quickly

DuncinToffee · 04/04/2023 17:01

He has his private videographer accompanying him to record the 'behind the scenes'

greenacrylicpaint · 04/04/2023 18:42

what conditions would he get for bail?

surely they will not keep him in custody until trial?

DuncinToffee · 04/04/2023 19:05

He has been arrested and fingerprinted now.

No idea of bail conditions, house arrest and tag?

BruceAndNosh · 04/04/2023 19:06

I'm watching on Sky... I might just go and watch paint dry for something more interesting
